Funmoods has hijacked my Mozilla start page

I use Mozilla default start page (topic: Home). Funmoods changed the Google search engine. I do not have the Funmoods toolbar & Funmoods isn't in my installed programs. Also, Funmoods is not listed as an add-on, or it appears in my other search engines. I want to just get rid of it. I have reset my default homepage of Mozilla (topic: Home)-no change. I went in: config & reset "browser.startup.homepage" and I always funmoods as the default search. Someone can understand where could hide from the funmoods & how can I reset my default google search engine?

I think that the techniques in the following thread should run as long you don't have any what persistent extension: how it prevents 3rd party applications to change settings (for example the homepage) of the FF?.

To eradicate any suspicious sounding or simple unnecessary extensions, see the list here:

Orange Firefox button or classic menu Tools > Modules > category: Extensions

    Maybe your preferences do not save.

    If the above does not solve your problem, you can try this.

    An alternative method will directly change the config... don't know if it works or not.

    -> Type about: config in the address bar and click on "I'll be careful, I promise".
    -> In the filter text box, enter "browser.startup.homepage".
    -> Right click and choose Edit.
    -> Enter the desired site and press 'Ok '.

    Also make sure that the value of "browser.startup.page" is set to 1

    If you still have the problem, can you tell if you did anything out of the ordinary that caused the option home page to behave like that.

  • What is the difference b/w Google search Mozilla Start Page and search bar?

    It is not a priority, I want just a general answer.

    I read that Google renew the license of the Google search bar on the Start Page of Mozilla Firefox, and it is where Mozilla makes 90% of its money, because it is a not-for-profit organization.

    I want to know if I give Google a signal to make use of this licence renewal when I search from the Page start and not from the bar I research have.

    Hi Marc, it won't make a difference if search you from the home page or the search bar - both use the same default search provider.
    In addition, mozilla is more in partnership with google. For more details please see https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2014/11/19/promoting-choice-and-innovation-on-the-web/

    Thank you

    Hello kodi2011, you can modify the site that opens in a new tab like this:

    enter Subject: config in the address bar of firefox (confirmed the message information where it appears), get preference named browser.newtab.url, double-click it and change its value on the site you want to see (the default value is on: newtab, for the firefox home page to use on: House or fill any other url).

  • Personalized start page

    Hello.
    Before the update for Firefox 42.01 on the channel every night, I used a custom start page that would open every time I open a new tab or browser window. I did this by creating a file custom .html, entering into the Firefox configuration files and saying to open this file whenever I open a new tab. This worked before, but since this update and putting great implement new tab system, it doesn't work anymore. I checked my config files and it still connects to my custom .html file, but Firefox does not open it. Is it possible to use my custom instead of the built-in Mozilla start page?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • How can I make Mozilla Firefox Start Page use Google search instead of Aol search?

I don't remember if I did anything on PURPOSE or something when it happened, but on the navigation bar, my search engine is always Google... I really want to use Google instead of Aol search, and I don't want to change my home page?

    Change of the topic: Home search engine to Google.

  • When I click on the Moilla button on my desktop, the firefox start page appears, so does Mozilla no button to access print, history. options etc, it just says: start mozilla firefox at the top page. RT page tc.

    When I click the Mozilla icon on my desktop, a mozilla firefox start page developed that has NO mozilla button to click and access the characters, story, options, etc. Also the entire page shifts automatically down a bit to only show that google question box and no address bar. Also, there was once a place where I could click on pages more accessible, but that disappeared a few weeks before. I have a HP computer and that you never know what will look like the start page.

    Make sure that you run not Firefox mode full screen (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: Ctrl + Shift + F).

    If you are in full screen view then hover over with the mouse upward to make the bar appear Navigation and tab bar.

    You can click the maximize button in the upper right to leave the mode full screen or empty space of a right-click on a toolbar and use "exit full screen" or press F11.

  • How can I stop several tabs opening as well as the Mozilla Firefox Start Page at the time of launch. How can this be stopped?

    Whenever I run Firefox, tabs has also begin to open with the Start Page Mozilla Firefox, which is very irritating. How can I avoid this happening whenever I run the browser?

    See the following for a few suggestions:

    It is also possible that there is a problem with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox profile folder.

    Delete the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox profile folder.

    If you see files sessionstore-# .js with a number in the left part of the name as sessionstore - 1.js then delete those as well.

    Delete sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and groups of tabs to get lost, so you'll have to create them again (note).

  • Mozilla firefox start page

    the start page of mozilla firefox are customizable as it is in the same way the chrome one
    as have photos and other things instead of the homepage standard thx

    No. - default home page (subject: House) cannot be customized, as in some other browsers.

    IMO, topic: newtab will not give you what your want, without having to install an add-on with the features that you want to change.
    For example - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/new-tab-tools/

    The best way to "fix", which is to define your own choices for 'your' home page.
